NRA courses and overlap with IL CCL training

I'm new to guns and have been thinking about taking some basic NRA courses (Basic Pistol, Personal Protection In The Home) in order to further sharpen my skills beyond what I've done at the range so far/learn more about guns in general. Do either of these courses count toward/have curriculum overlap with IL CCL training (would it be worth my while to look into taking them)?

I took the "Basics of Pistol Shooting - Online course"....that is worth about 8 hours. When I first took the course, I could only find one NRA instructor that would accept it as 8 hours. After a few months, more instructors would accept it.

I also took a separate "Basics of Pistol Shooting" course from an NRA instructor. It does not count for any credit, and I would normally steer people away from it, but I lucked out as there was only one other person that took the course. So it was basically 2 hours of class room training and going over different weapons, then two hours of two range time with a "near" personal instructor with different weapons if you wanted.
